Four riders Ian ,Jamie ,Paul and George turned up for the Cartmel ride and despite the continuous rain we had suffered all day it actually stopped raining and never rained until we were packing the bikes back on the cars. We set off to moans from Ian out of Cartmel Park along the road towards Grange and past the Fell golf course to head over Hampsfell. The descent down to Cartmel was spoilt by tractor tracks and being paddled by cows. We were wary of the cows with calves as they were reluctant to move off the track. We then headed across the bridleway from Anysome to Cartmel and the deep stream helped wash the mud from our bikes, except Ian found a stone bridge in the trees which we never new existed. We then headed for Speel bank and over to Mount Barnard followed by a ride in the dark down to Cartmel Park.
Thanks to George for the update, well done, next ride is Barbon.
